4.4 out of 5 stars 37 ratings

Got an idea for a great fantasy world but no idea what to do with it? How do you even start building a whole new world?

The Fantasy Worldbuilding Workbook streamlines the whole worldbuilding process by:

  1. Establishing your personalized goals and parameters
  2. Teaching you both top-down and bottom-up design strategies
  3. Building a bible to keep your world straight
  4. Mastering analogue cultures and fantasy functions
  5. Employing antecedents and extrapolations to make your world feel real
  6. Using dozens of infographics and illustrations to keep the information clear

And unlike other workbooks with too few uncategorized questions, this definitive guidebook has over 750 prompts broken out by:

  • Geography
  • Biology
  • Magic
  • Metaphysics
  • Technology
  • Culture

It also ensures you only see questions that pertain to your personal world so you never get lost. Great for authors, DMs, and screenwriters ready to fashion unforgettable fantasy worlds.

Fantasy Worldbuilding Workbook will help you to create a more interesting and diverse world in your writing and storytelling, without question.” –Tom Harnett, FanFiaddict.com

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Never passing up the opportunity to speak about himself in the third person, M.D. Presley is not nearly as clever as he thinks he is. Born and raised in Texas, he spent several years on the East Coast and now waits for the West Coast to shake him loose. His favorite words include defenestrate, callipygian, and Algonquin. The fact that monosyllabic is such a long word keeps him up at night.

    Well-researched, thorough, and fascinating. Definitely useful to writers, whether you consider yourself a planner/architect or pantser/gardener.

    Had a great time reading it! The tone is conversational but academic, and the depth of knowledge is clearly evidence. Can't wait to use the tools here in my writing!

    3.0 out of 5 stars Good but not essential follow up
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 1, 2023
    A good book with some excellent prompts for worldbuilding, but too much repetition of content from the first book in the series.
